A Cautious Risk

Your perfect in almost every since A demeanor that warms my heart It would please me to end up with you The problem is I just wont start Wanting to let you in But my feelings cause a blockage Half of me says yes half of me says no My hearts just being cautious Scared of putting in too much Just to return and see nothing Knowing that you cant wait, I try to debate And hopefully come up with something Though you are very different It’s all the same I’m fearing Accepting you and loving you Then you disappearing Wish I could believe what you say But there are little value in words And peoples action don’t match what they say So it contradicts the things you’ve heard Confused with all my thoughts That interfere with what I feel The past affects me so much It seems hard to find the will To open up a closed door Not knowing what lies a wait So I keep that same door shut So that my feelings wont escape Chopped up and butchered like before Highly elevated off the ground I refuse to get back up that high Just to be let down Though our feelings are mutual And together we are bliss I hate when things happen twice So don’t know if I want to take that Cautious Risk
